Katharina + Erhard : Epcot Canada Wedding

May 17, 2016 by Jensey 6 Comments

These two. <3

Katharina and Erhard came all the way from Germany for their Epcot Canada wedding! Two of the sweetest people we’ve met, on their engagement session they brought two mugs Katharina made for us inspired by Carl and Ellie’s mailbox. On their wedding day, they hand wrote thank you notes to each vendor, and sent us home with two huge beer steins filled with German candy. Even on her wedding day, Katharina was thinking of everyone around her, and it’s so easy to see why Erhard fell in love with her.

Their wedding day was so sweet and intimate, the only guest in attendance was their best friend, Jenny. Epcot weddings are always super special… There’s nothing like an empty park to yourself to amplify the adrenaline for your wedding! Every detail of their day was so thought out and perfectly executed, from Katharina’s bouquet she handmade herself to the tear-inducing “Ellie badge” moment during the ceremony, to their first dance. Did I mention these two would give the pros from “Dancing with the Stars” a run for their money?! I think my favorite moment was at the finale of Illuminations- We’d run them around for different vantage points for the fireworks, when in the last 10 seconds, they spontaneously started dancing and ended in the perfect pose at the final “boom” of the fireworks.

Katharina and Erhard, we love y’all so much and are so thankful for our new friendship. We so hope you enjoy these photos as much as we enjoyed taking them! :)

And a very special thanks to the vendor team who made this wedding a dream! Kalie from About Face, our fairy godmother officiant Renee Silverman, Beyond Videography, and of course, Nicole from Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings- We couldn’t have done it without y’all! <3

The only thing better than connecting rooms? Suites! We love that Erhard got ready in one bedroom and Katharina in the other. <3

I love that I was randomly playing with these books for photos with Katharina’s amaaaazing bouquet, when she told me Pride and Prejudice happens to be her favorite novel! Happy accidents are the best kind. :)

I really hope we can see each other again soon!!! (And your timing is still perfect – I discovered this right before my coffee date with Jenny <3)
